Why It is Smarter to Think Twice Before Mortgaging Your Homes
By David Jackson of Carpediem Articles
Mortgage loans are typical means of some homeowners who run households with a bootstrapped budget. For specific situations, the loan method has truly been serving the financial needs of these families; for this reason that loans have become instant financial aids for times of dire need. That is why, the significance of owning a home has always been regarded as one of the strongest real estate investments that one could ever make. Mortgaging your homes is never easy though. Any homeowner has to investigate these mortgage companies holding the legality of their properties temporarily for financial returns. Are your properties and interests safe with them? Or are they bound to truly hold you by the neck in the end? In the United States, when homeowners talk about mortgage loans, financial giants Freddie Mac and Mannie Mae come into mind. Although they have been famous in the mortgage industry, few people do really realize the vital roles that they play in American homeownership’s financial services. For one, these giants are government-sponsored entities, though publicly traded in the New York Stock Exchange, that have significant ties with the Federal Government. The relationship they have with the government is seen by some financial analysts and competing companies as an unfair advantage. This bond gives them the opportunity to issue corporate debts with much lower interest charges than the rest of its competitors. Why is this so? Because, they are ran by a public mission of providing a steady flow of mortgage funds at low cost. Another thing, the Federal bond also means that whatever securities issued by Freddie Mac and Mannie Mae are as well guarantees by the government. So whatever happens with these firms, the notion comes in that the government is ready to back or bail them out. The bond also exempts them from paying local and state taxes. However, this bond with the Federal Government also supplies them with certain limitations in the business. These giants have been set to concentrate on the residential mortgage market alone, not allowed to go beyond this line of business. Plus, the fact that they are required to focus on low income and moderate income households or minorities alone. But are Freddie Mac and Mannie Mae serving its real purpose? It is unquestionable as to how much roles they play in the market, but the problem comes in with the greater risk that they seem to also create to the public. Since they hold large credit and interest risks, whatever loss or problem experienced within their corporations will also be felt by the outside financial market worldwide that is. The idea of managing a large and complex mortgage risk follows the idea of a bigger systematic risk for everyone. What happened actually in 2007 when Freddie Mac announced a loss that is credit-related is already an example of the dangers in this kind of system. Analysts say that it may have been both wise and unwise to focus significance on these two mortgage giants because of the risk that they seem to pose to the public. Even though they seem to provide a steady flow of funds for mortgage loans from Wall Street to Main Street, any credit-related loss would mean a stress to the entire financial world.
